R&B superstar Usher Raymond says he will dedicate his upcoming show in Las Vegas to black musicians who have held the forte in the music industry throughout the years.
He said it was important to honor friends and mentors who had been supportive in his career as he prepared to mount the stage next Sunday , February 11, 2024.
The Same Girl crooner will perform during the Super Bowl Halftime Show when the Kansas City Chiefs take on the San Francisco 49ers at the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
“I didn’t start where I am now, and I didn’t get there by myself. So, everybody that has been a part of it, I’m carrying them with me,” he said.
“All of my fans, my loved ones, the people who may have felt like they have been forgotten, they haven’t. I’m carrying you right with me when I walk on that stage that night,” he said in an interview with Good Morning America on Friday.
The performance will come days after he launches his ninth studio album , Coming Home . The singer recently put out a track list for the album, which features top talents like Burna Boy, H.E.R, 21 Savage and many others.
